import PkgListV37 from "/components/PkgListV37";

1. Download the client installation package

  <PkgListV37 productName="TDengine TSDB-OSS Client" version="3.3.8.8" platform="macOS" pkgType="Client"/>

2. Run the installer and follow the prompts to select the default values to complete the installation. If the installation is blocked, you can right-click or press Ctrl and click on the installation package, then choose `Open`.
3. Configure taos.cfg

   Edit the `taos.cfg` file (default path /etc/taos/taos.cfg), and change `firstEP` to the End Point of the TDengine server, for example: `h1.tdengine.com:6030`

:::tip

1. If the TDengine service is not deployed on the local machine and only the application driver is installed, then only `firstEP` needs to be configured in `taos.cfg`, there is no need to configure `FQDN` on the local machine.
2. To prevent the “Unable to resolve FQDN” error when connecting to the server, it is recommended to ensure that the local `/etc/hosts` file has been configured with the correct FQDN value of the server, or that the DNS service has been properly set up.
